At 22:04:30 (local) last night the robot received an email from you which was sent as a multipart message, not plain text. It does not know how to deal with multipart messages, so it sent the mail back to you with a message asking you to please reformat and resubmit your mail.
According to the logs on amprgw, your mail provider, Hotmail, received that reply six seconds later and queued it for delivery. You should have received it by now.
Unless Hotmail is still silently deleting automated messages - it used to do that years ago, much to the annoyance of a place I previously worked for. Clients would complain that their booking confirmations would never arrive. During out investigation, we discovered that all those with complaints had Hotmail addresses, and then further testing with the booking system revealed Hotmail was silently deleting the automatically generated mail, instead of either passing it on to the recipient, putting it into the junk mail folder or rejecting it outright with a bounce. This was years ago, but it ended any thought I might have had of using Hotmail for even trivial purposes.
